I love this!!
OMG!! This is the best. It made my skin look bright and clear, and it has a sweet smell. I have really bad acne - when even I touch my face my skin it breaks out, but this didnโt make my acne any worse. That was my biggest concern, so it passed for me!
The gentle warming is SO relaxing
I love the gentle warming effect of this mask! it feels great on and the warming seemed to reactivate for me so after rinsing it off my skin felt warm for a little while afterwards, which I loved! This mask left my skin feeling nicely moisturized and not tight which I prefer. I didn't need a lot for application and it dried nicely then came rinsed off as expected for a clay mask. It is easier to wash off in the shower or with a washcloth at the sink.
Really cleans out pores
This is a wonderful clay mask. It's a little thick coming out but it's very easy to spread. Has a nice subtle sweet scent. You'll feel the mask warm up a bit when it begins to work. So don't think you're having a reaction it's just how it works. You can actually start seeing speckles in the areas where the pores have been cleaned out. It was so easy to remove. I used a warm wet cloth and easily wiped it off. My skin was so smooth and so fresh looking. My pores were so clean and clear. They appeared smaller and tighter. I'm really happy with this mask. Now if you look at the photo I uploaded you'll see the expiration date is 9/20 which is only two months away. The directions recommend using once to twice a week. There's no way I'll finish this before it expires. (Just a side note: I also recieved a retinoid cream from the same brand with the same expression date) and I just recieved these products. Just keep that in mind when purchasing. Product wise though is a definite 5 stars!
Warming sensation is so good
I love a good face mask - this hits all the marks for me. It is thick and basically feels like wet pottery in your hands (hence the clay), smells nice (somewhat perfume-y) and most importantly, feels like something Iโd get at a spa. When I first put it on, I was surprised by the warming sensation, since I didnโt realize it had that effect. I liked it! Iโve had masks like that before and they just add another dimension to the experience. I left it on for 10 minutes and washed it right off. Some clay masks Iโve used are hard to wash off - not this one. Face felt smooth and had no irritation afterward. I really like this brand.
Clogged pores rejoice!
I'm a wee bit of a skincare addict, and I love trying out products (my husband jokes that my bathroom looks like an Ulta blew up). One thing I am always on the lookout for is a good product to help with the occasional breakout in my T-zone or the god-awful cystic acne that pops up every so often along my chin and jaw. Since my cheeks are on the dry side, I've only used this on my T-zone to deal with some of the stubborn clogged pores there, and so far so good. I like how the mask warms up a bit to help pores relax (if that's the right word since pores don't actually open or close) and the AHAs help to soften/dissolve the gunk inside the pores so it is easier to remove. Since I've not had to use more moisturizer than normal, this mask hasn't caused any dry or flaky skin. I also didn't leave it on for a full 20 minutes like the directions say you can do, instead opting to wash it off after just 10 (based on my patch test). Between the AHAs and the bentonite clay and the self-warming, I didn't want to push my skin to the point of irritation. The directions also say you can use this up to twice a week, but since I am also using retinol, I will likely keep this mask to once a week.<br /><br />After checking out their main site, I found this line was created by pediatric dermatologist specifically to deal with skin concerns/conditions more specifically associated with those in their early 20โs such as stress breakouts, hormone changes, excess oil, etc., but they also offer products for dry and sensitive skin. I'm in my 40's and still deal with stress breakouts and hormone changes, and it's nice to see a product address the actual causes behind the breakouts rather than only the end result (the breakout itself).<br /><br />The packaging for this product gets its own star. A full set of directions, possible side effects, and ingredient list - all printed in multiple languages - is included in folded pamphlet form along with the product, so no more hanging on to the box 'just in case.' You also get a little flag shaped card with a positive message printed on it is included. Tacky glued underneath is an information card underneath that says what the product is for, how to use it, what to expect, possible side effects, and a coupon code for either a percentage off or a free product if you decide to purchase directly from their main website. Additionally, a sample packet of another of Higher Education's products is included for you to try. You can tell that a lot of thought went into making the purchase and use of this product a pleasant experience.
Great self-care mask
Most wash-off masks that I've tried are good for tightening the skin and minimizing pores, but I've been looking lately for a mask that won't strip my skin and will be good for self-care nights when I just want to hydrate my skin. This mask is perfect for that! Other than a couple of fragrant ingredients (citral, linalool,and benzyl benzoat) very low on the ingredient list, it contains a lot of really great hydrating ingredients, and it left my skin feeling smooth and firm but not tight. It doesn't apply very smoothly, as you can see in the photo I included, so it isn't the best skincare selfie mask, but in terms of functionality I really enjoyed it and will continue using it. They also included a sample of their eye cream for me to try that felt really nice too!<br /><br />The only issue I had with it was that the packaging was pretty beaten up when I got it. It was still sealed with a little clear sticker on the top of the box, and there was a peel-off seal on the bottle, so it clearly was still unopened. Didn't bother me, I just thought it was worth mentioning.
Good for your skin
The packaging is really nice, it helps your skin to look better and nice is easy to take it off and is a nice way to help your skin is easy to take it with you it doesnโt have a strong smell
Fun and Functional Clay Mask
Love this product and its unique packaging! It also came with an awesome sticker and a sample for another Higher Education Product, super impressive and fun. I love the unique packaging that looks like a book!<br /><br />The clay mask itself is good quality, and dried without excessive tightening or drying. It washed off easily and definitely gave a clearer complexion. The instructions do advise to only use on t-zone if you have drier skin seasonally.<br /><br />Overall, great product and I will use it weekly!
